SIGNALCLOCK V2 Manual

PRE-INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Please remove the plastic sheet from the front of the display before powering the clock on.

Removing this sheet after the clock has been powered up can result in damage to the hardware

due to static build-up.

It is, currently, not possible to obtain the serial number of the clock via the web interface. We,

therefore, recommend taking note of the serial number before mounting the clock to the wall. The

serial number is located on the rear of the clock and will be required by the Galleon Systems

support team for product/warranty verification, should you experience technical issues with your

product.

REQUIREMENTS

1. Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Galleon’s SignalClock requires a connection to a PoE enabled network so it can source power in

compliance with IEEE 802.3af.

PoE is commonly used to power devices such as wireless access points and IP telephones. It is

usually injected into the LAN using either PoE enabled Ethernet switches or a power injector.

Consult with your IT Administrator regarding the PoE equipment on your network.

If your network has a PoE enabled network switch, simply connect the clock to the PoE enabled

port on the switch as per the above diagram. The SignalClock will automatically request and

receive power from the switch that conforms to the IEEE 802.3af standard.

Note: If the site plan requires a significant number of clocks to be powered from a single piece of

network equipment, you should verify that that piece of equipment can deliver the necessary

power. Some PoE enabled switches cannot deliver the full IEEE 802.3af power of 550ma per port

or may require certain power options to do so.

SIGNALCLOCK V2 Manual

If your network does not have a PoE enabled network switch, you will need to use a power

injector with the clock. A power injector passes Ethernet communications through while also

injecting power in accordance with the IEEE 802.3af standard.

The above diagram shows how a power injector fits into the set up. If you have a power injector

supplied by Galleon, connect the hub/switch to the port labelled “LAN” on the power injector and

connect the clock to the port labelled “PoE” on the power injector. Plug the power supply in and

wait for the clock’s display to come on. When the unit powers up, make a note of the IP address,

as this will be needed to configure the unit via the web interface.

2. DHCP SERVER

By default, the SignalClock is set to use DHCP to obtain its IP Address. If the clock is unable to

receive network settings from the DHCP server, the clock will cycle: ‘----‘. If the clock is unable to

obtain an IP address after several attempts, it will set its IP address to 169.254.0.1. This is done so

that the unit can be configured without requiring a DHCP server.

Once the unit has obtained an IP address from a DHCP server on your network, configuration (such

as static network settings) can be applied to the clock. For help with this, please see the “Web

Configuration”section of this manual.

SIGNALCLOCK V2 Manual

INSTALLATION

The mounting instructions slightly differ for the 4-digit and 6-digit models due to their different

dimensions. Please follow the instructions that are relevant for your SignalClock model.

MOUNTING THE 4-DIGIT MODEL

1. Locate the two slots on the back of the clock that allow the clock to be mounted to the

wall using two screws.

2. Measure a horizontal line of exactly 300mm in the area of your choice, the end points of

which represent the drilling locations for the screws.

3. Drill the holes and insert wall plugs into the wall to prevent the screws from coming loose.

4. Fit the screws into the plugs.

5. When the clock is ready, connect the Ethernet cable to the rear of the clock and hang it on

the wall.

MOUNTING THE 6-DIGIT MODEL

1. Locate the two slots on the back of the clock that allow the clock to be mounted to the

wall using two screws.

2. Measure a horizontal line of exactly 480mm in the area of your choice, the end points of

which represent the drilling locations for the screws.

3. Drill the holes and insert wall plugs into the wall to prevent the screws from coming loose.

4. Fit the screws into the plugs.

5. When the clock is ready, connect the Ethernet cable to the rear of the clock and hang it on

the wall.

WEB CONFIGURATION

LOGGING ONTO THE UNIT

Using a web browser (such as Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer), enter

the IP address of the clock into the browser’s address bar.

If you are unsure of the IP address, disconnect and reconnect the power to the clock and watch

the clock’s display for the IP address.

Once at the log in page of the clock, type the default password: admin and click Submit.

Upon entering the correct password, you will be redirected to the Home page.

HOME

The Home page provides you with an overview of the following:

-The current software version and its release date.

-A date and timestamp of when the clock last received a response from an NTP server.

-The IP address of the NTP server used for the last update.

-The MAC address of the clock.

The Flash Display button can be used to identify a clock. This is useful if you have multiple clocks

and wish to identify the unit you are currently connected to. The display will flash once per second

for five flashes before returning to normal.

NETWORK SETTINGS

IP address settings are configured on the Network Settings page. You can either:

•Enable Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which will make the clock request

network settings from a DHCP server.

•Choose STATIC and manually enter the network settings for the clock (ensure the IP

address is not already in use by another device).

Please note that any changes made to the Network Settings page will require a reboot for the

settings to take effect. This can be achieved using the Reboot Clock button—as indicated.

SIGNALCLOCK V2 Manual

TIME SERVER ADDRESS

The Time Server Address page allows you to point the clock to a time server for time updates.

Currently this only accepts an IP address.

You should ensure the time server you are pointing the clock to is synchronised. The clock may

reject time from an unsynchronised source.

Once you have entered a time server address, click the Apply Changes button. A restart is not

required for changes on this page to take effect.

Public Time Servers

If you are pointing the clock to a public time server, you should be aware that these servers

usually use rate limiting to prevent Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and misuse. Pointing multiple

clocks to, or having multiple NTP requests to, a public time server can often lead to a ban by the

public time server. In this case, the clock(s) will indicate they have lost connection to the time

server by flashing ‘No Sync’ every 60 seconds.

To prevent your devices from being banned by the public time server, you can download and

install our TimeSync software on a non-domain controller system. Point TimeSync to the public

time server and point your clock(s) and any other devices to TimeSync. This minimises the chance

of being banned by the public time server. You should contact Galleon Systems for more

information, and you will need to purchase licenses before using TimeSync.
